We had a short sail and were delighted with the results. I still need to do some tweeking. The placing of the control lines are not ideal yet but will be soon improved. My transom is not so high so I had to turn the bracked all the way upwards. Still the boldt holding the rudder blade was only about 2 centimeters above the water. What do you suggest? Is this allright? Or is it possible to shorten the tube (420\/421) going down to the rudder? I can also tilt the pilot back a bit to raise the bolt a bit out of the water but this will lead to the upper part of de pilot not being totally plum. Looking forward to your opinion.<br \/>\nUtrecht 1st of august 2025<br \/>\nAll the best!<br \/>\nMarijn<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel-1024x457.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"286\" class=\"size-large wp-image-33838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel-1024x457.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel-768x343.jpg 768w, https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel-1536x685.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/windpilot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ohne-Titel.jpg 2008w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>good evening,<br \/>\nwell done!\u00a0 I love the picture of the One Off tiller \u2026. rudder position at this kind of scoop with lower end extremely close to the waterline ist just perfect, no improvement needed \/ possible<br \/>\nfirst set of blocks please move to stanchion at end of deck \u2026 better pulling angle = more pull at the end \u2026<br \/>\nall the best from late night sofa<br \/>\n01.08.2025<br \/>\nPeter<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WAARSCHIP 740 &#8211; FIRST SEA TRIAL Dear Peter, Yesterday I installed my new windpilot.
